very nice BW photo,i like the smooth gray tone from hp5+.
here is a photo taken by my friend with hp5+ and d76 developer+v750 scannerjb7ParticipantLooks like 2 nice prints there-
I shouldn’t really say anything, cos this isn’t a critique section,
but anyway-Looks like you had a big range in that Gizzo,
and it looks like you handled it very well-Technically, in terms of tonal range, it looks like you have that sorted for this picture-
The idea of ‘converting’ to mono doesn’t apply to film,
it’s mono already-If you want something different to the default ‘[convert to greyscale’ setting,
then you have to filter before exposing-
though I’m not too sure you could have done very much with that sky…I wont say anything about the rocks either-
I’m not usually a big fan, unless they happen to produce quite graphic images-I’m more used to seeing Street and architectural type images from you-
got any more?j
cathaldParticipantGood job Gigi myself and Sean went looking for that arch when
we were in Fanad last week I walked down through a field and
fell on my ass and slid to the bttom of the hill,gave up looking after thatGizzoParticipantcathald wrote:

Spent a whole afternoon lookin for it, at 5PM was too cold and we decided it was tea time…
To be honest with you, I can’t even remember directions to get here. I asked to a person at the lighthouse and I presume by chance I ended there.. I think there is one wee sign and then is up to you…jb7 wrote:

though I’m not too sure you could have done very much with that sky…to be honest I tried using a orange filter to enhance the sky but it didn’t work out terribly well.
that’s why I went for a framing with less sky possible (and more rocky foreground that you don’t like ;))
By the way it’s not completely white so I am happy with it (maybe here it looks burned but that’s the scanner I presume).The tonal range is what surprised me. It’s not black it’s….it’s many greys!!!! it’s amazing when you see it.

got any more?now this is weird…. street pictures from me? anyway I do have some negs, but you’ll have to wait for the prints unfortunately!!
